Team signs first-rounder Myers to deal

‘Tallinder and Lydman, meanwhile, have not regained their form from two seasons ago and Paestch was bypassed by Butler for an opening. Mike Weber is also expected to vie for a spot on the team’s roster, but a strong showing by Myers could deem Lydman or Tallinder expendable. Both are entering the final year of their $3 million-plus contracts. All this opens a window for Myers, who will either spend time with the Sabres or back in Kelowna next year.’
